ECM Publishers, Inc. is a leader in local community news with 49 newspaper titles and more than 20 online news publications; employs over 400 associates at 17 locations in the metro area and out state Minnesota.  The future of news encompasses real time information coming from many sources published to an ever expanding suite of connected devices. One of our goals is to make our local community news publications and online news coverage become the most important information platform for local residents.

Started in 1976 as the vision of founder Elmer L. Andersen, the Company has grown from one paid circulation weekly newspaper and shopper to its current operations including four divisions: publishing, printing, digital media and distribution.  ECM is looking to the future as one of Minnesota’s largest local news organizations serving over 650,000 households.  We are continuing to evolve and expand our capacity to meet the demands of our communities.  

Printing operations include a full service commercial printing office in Coon Rapids from graphic design to the finished printed piece.  ECM's web printing plant in Princeton has the most non-heat single-width commercial capability in the upper Midwest and provides full 4-color capability, state of the art electronic pre-press featuring PDF workflow, digital proofing, and computer-to-plate technology.  ECM has a complete post press department including saddle-stitch bindery, machine inserting, and full mailing capability featuring ink-jet addressing.

ECM Distribution delivers newspapers, shoppers, catalogs, free standing inserts, telephone directories and sample products from strategically located warehouse operations in Minnesota and western Wisconsin.

ECM exists to serve and benefit our customers, associates, shareholders and communities - our four cornerstones - by gathering and communicating the news, providing superior products and services, and actively participating in the communities we serve.
